    Moving To A New House

    Contributed by Joe Rowland on Aug 24, 2009
    based on 8 ratings
     | 26,359 views

    We need that old time covering, and we need that old time Pentecostal power back in our lives. The church world needs to get back to the basics of our faith, get back on our knees and start talking to the Lord. We need a childlike faith.

    Moving To A New House 2 Corinthians 5:1-8 1 For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. 2 For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from ...read more

    The Church Of The New Testament - Part 7b Series

    Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Feb 19, 2018
     | 94,093 views

    Part 7B under Functions in the New Testament church deals with those functions that Paul styles as first, second, and third; that is, apostles, prophets, and teachers. What are their functions, and were they only for the earliest Christians, or all ages?

    This 13-part series of classes has been many years in the making. About 25 years ago I began in earnest to examine the features, character and characteristics of the church as it existed in its earliest years. As I sometimes do, I kept my notes all along the way, and this series of classes is to a ...read more

     | 48,813 views

    Part 7C, for the purpose of using space coveniently, combines the subjects--although not directly related--of (1) false Christs, prophets, and teachers and (2) various gifts and their accompanying functions.

    The Sign Of The End Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Dec 28, 2020
     | 4,730 views

    What will be the sign that the end of the age is upon us, that we're in the Great Tribulation, and the Kingdom of God is imminent?

    What is the Sign of the End of the Age? Anybody know? As Jesus came to the end of his life and ministry, He was sitting with his disciples in Jerusalem as they marveled at the great buildings, and the huge stones that were used to construct the temple, when Jesus told them that a time would come ...read more

    The Church In Jerusalem

    Contributed by Bob Soulliere on Feb 6, 2010
     | 2,782 views

    That church was the hottest church in the New Testament...or since. They were the poorest church (Paul took offerings from other churches to support them) and yet they won more souls and offered the greatest threat to Satan. They suffered more and yet had

    Acts 6:7 THE CHURCH IN JERUSALEM 7So the word of God spread. The number of disciples in Jerusalem increased rapidly, and a large number of priests became obedient to the faith. The verse we have just read is an excellent description of the church in Jerusalem. That church was the hottest church ...read more

    The Major Dynamics Of Church Life Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Nov 15, 2021
     | 1,995 views

    Our personal histories, church history, our culture and experiences all color our view as to what church is about. We need to recalibrate and correct our assumptions by returning to the Scriptures.

    The Major Dynamics of Church Life (Romans 15:1-13) NOTE: If I could do it over again, I would make three sermons from this text. All three points could have used more elaboration than I gave them. In the first point, I could have demonstrated further that the New Testament purpose for church ...read more

    Jesus Endorses The Law

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Nov 26, 2023
     | 727 views

    When Jesus endorsed the law, and said that we are to be more righteous than the Pharisees, did He mean that we are to keep all 613 Old Testament commandments more rigidly, or in a completely different manner? Let's find out in Matthew 5.

    Jesus condemned whoever sets aside the least of God’s commands. Does that mean that all 613 Old Testament commandments are still in force, like circumcision, Sabbaths and sacrifices? Let’s examine salt, light and the law in Matthew 5:13-20. Salt & Light What are Christ’s disciples? You are ...read more

    Spirit Of The Law Part 1

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Nov 27, 2023
     | 706 views

    Who better to give a commentary on the Old Testament than it's author, Jesus? Let's look at the Spirit of the law in Matthew 5.

    The best commentary on the Old Testament is by Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount. In each case we learn several things, 1) the Spirit of the law, 2) our utter failure to live up to it, and 3) our need for forgiveness and mercy. Let’s begin to understand the intent of the law by its author. Let’s ...read more

    The Authority Of Scripture Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Nov 24, 2022
     | 4,192 views

    If we are to understand the divine authority of Scripture, it is important that we understand the way scripture was inspired by God. It is the bedrock of our faith in Christ. Jesus loves me this I know, for the Bible tells me so.

     | 21,814 views

    Part 7e addresses the functions of Evangelists, Preachers, and Ministers/Servants/Deacons and some variations between the New Testament church and modern practice in the way these functions are implemented.

    A sermon on the Old Testament teaching of the Sanctuary from the story of the woman with the issue of blood touching Jesus.

    This is my adaptation of a sermon by Pastor Henry Wright If you have your Bibles, turn with me please to Mark 5:25-34. In case you think I’m not preaching on the Sanctuary, I am. It’s all in Mark 5; you just missed it the last time you read it. Mark 5:25-34. “And a certain woman, which had an ...read more

    The Sounds Of Genesis

    based on 8 ratings
     | 2,473 views

    This sermon deals with what I believe to be the most significant sounds in the Old Testament.

    The Sounds of Genesis Genesis 3:6 (KJV) And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.

    "Why does God allow it?"************* The Old Testament is the tadpole, the New the frog!

    I wonder how many of our eyes go glazed when we hear this: “The Old Testament Reading is taken from the Book of Exodus”!? Someone, in a Lent Study Group, once asked me: “Why should we pay attention to the Old Testament? Isn’t it’s teaching out of date?. Isn’t the New Testament all we need?” ...read more

    This is a study on Sheol - the abode of the dead. This concept is found both in the Old and the New Testament.
